| I copied the following from one of my other comments since it's a lot of text, but these are the reasons I moved off Firefox for Android (Fenix) to Brave. Also, Chromium-based browsers for Android have none of the following issues. --- - Scrolling up on Google search's results page and some other pages is not registered half the time, and sometimes triggers pull-to-refresh instead - Scrolling up inside an input box while the page is at the top of the screen causes unintentional pull-to-refresh - Bitwarden autofill is not registered unless you kill and restart the app after logging in - You can't save images that require cookies to be passed to the request, such as under DDoS protected pages - Links will sometimes redirect to about:blank unless you go back and click them again - Most recently visited page is not restored when closing and reopening the app, even though it's saved to the history (closed as wontfix) - Uses large amounts of memory, causing Android share actions to be silently killed due to OOM unless you quickly kill the app right after sending them - Closing a tab and clicking "Undo" in the popup sends the tab all the way to the top of the list, instead of its original position (inconvenient if you have a large number of tabs open) - Frequently loses open tabs in memory, even within ten seconds of navigating to another tab - Startup time is noticably slower than Brave, taking at least a few seconds to show the UI and begin loading the page. It isn't much, but it impacts the user experience every time you start the app again. |
I use it all the time now because it supports uBlock Origin and Dark Reader and I think it's good. And I have all my bookmarks on Firefox sync. I have some minor issues with it like the tab list that doesn't always scroll right but they're not deal-breakers.
